  1. If Perez's role in the playoffs is to be a lefty specialist, it's pretty odd that he hasn't been used that way once this season, no? Obviously you cannot start him in one of these playoff games, is he worth putting on the roster to face one guy a night in a role he's never had? Berrios Odorizzi Dobnak Smeltzer Rogers May Duffey Littel Romo Graterol Stashak As bad as Gibson has been, I think I'd trust him to get you 2-3 innings in game 3 or 4 at Target Field over Perez
  2. He is not signed through 2021. He is controllable through 2021
  3. I am as in to the underlying stats and metrics as anyone, there is tons of value in that stuff. But it's August of a pennant race and Gibson is not getting the job done, repeatedly. I don't care that his underlying performance was promising, I care that his team got him a 2 run lead and he couldn't protect it.. which has become a common occurrence from him
  4. I mean I was throwing out a pretty simple comparison, not really trying to argue the merits of qualifying innings. I don't know how relevant comparing him to guys who have started 1 game is either. Lower it to 70 innings? 36th of 56. He hasn't been very good, feel free to pick away at the loose numbers I used to show the Twins should expect more from him
  5. At what point does last year become the outlier for Gibson? He had a career low BABIP and career high LOB%. Theres 28 AL pitchers with enough innings pitched to qualify, he's 20th in ERA this season
  6. I could be mistaken, but does it matter Sano has not physically reached the catcher or the plate yet? His pathway was blocked even though he is yet to be there.
  7. Kyle Gibson and Jose Berrios in August; 7 Starts, Twins record 2-5 38.2 Innings 36 runs 30 earned runs Big time performances down the stretch from the 2 guys who are supposed to be your best starters.
  8. It still doesnt make sense. It was the 2-4 spots in the Milwaukee lineup coming up, you use Romo, Dyson, Duffey. Is there a person here who didn't see that hanging curve ball to Grandal coming? Somehow the Manager didn't.
  9. Excellent use of the bullpen? Did we watch the same game? He used his 5th or 6th best bullpen option in the 7th inning vs the heart of the Milwaukee order, who promptly gave up 4 runs and the lead.
